#CollegeStudentProbs

Hey ladies,

I'm sorry I haven't been remotely consistent, but my life is very crazy right now. I know, that's not a good excuse; however as a college student, college and my health are my first priorities. Anyways, I'm transferring to a university this Spring and I'm still not sure where I'll be attending(definitely online). I have had 3 internships, 2 of which backed out or never happened, and the third internship(only one I have at the moment) is blogging about topics that interest young mothers. I also have a YouTube channel (which is now linked above. Hint: Subscribe to my blog and YT channel to learn about something that will happen soon!!).

I will try harder to be more consistent beginning with this post. At least, updating once a week.

I hope you lovelies have a wonderful week, I will write to you next week!

    About Me and BonBons Beauty

    Hey, my name is Bonnie and I would like to say "thank you!" for stopping by my blog as I know that there is a wide selection to choose from. In this post I'll first tell a little about myself and then talk about why I decided to start this blog.

    I'm a college student whom is hoping for a chance to start my own web design company someday. I love to read, draw, arts and crafts, swimming, and making Youtube videos. Ok, so you're probably wondering what makes me different from everyother beauty blogger? I'm sensitive, probably a little too over emotional, I am a lefty, and use both the creative and logical parts of my brain equally. I was born with a physical disability, but that being said, I don't want you to feel bad for me. I know that I was brought to Earth to use it to inspire others. I feel as if many girls and women dwell on their physical attributes; instead of seeing beyond them into the mind, heart, and soul. Yes, I do feel self-concious at times, especially when the huge scar on my forehead sticks out like a sore thumb. I have decided to set that aside and use other attributes to detract, not conceal, the scar.

    That brings me to why I have decided to blog/vlog. I just want all women to look past their physical imperfections: acne, tiny eyes, or thin hair. Everyone has those or some sort of quality they's like to change, but the question I ask is why would you want to look like a barbie when there will be an infinite number of dolls just like you? Focus on what makes you unique on the inside.

    In my blog, you'll read mostly what other beauty bloggers talk about: new trends, products, specials, etc.. but I will also be talking about health, technology, college, and books I'm reading.

    I am always willing to answer questions, review products that you want to buy but don't know whether its worth buying, or just talk.

    Have a fantabulous week, and discover what makes you unique!
